    Punjabi weddings are a celebration of life, love, and togetherness. They are known for their vibrant colors, lively music, and rich traditions. Punjabi weddings are not just a union of two individuals but a union of two families. In this blog, we will take an insight into the lively and festive Punjabi wedding traditions.
    Pre-wedding rituals play a vital role in Punjabi weddings. The first pre-wedding ritual is the Roka ceremony, where the groom's family formally visits the bride's family to seek their approval for the marriage. This is followed by the Sagan ceremony, where the bride and groom exchange gifts and sweets with each other's families. The Mehndi ceremony, where the bride's hands and feet are adorned with intricate henna designs, is also a popular pre-wedding ritual in Punjabi weddings.
    The wedding day in a Punjabi wedding is a grand affair. The bride typically wears a traditional red or maroon lehenga and is adorned with beautiful jewelry. The groom, on the other hand, wears a traditional sherwani and a turban. The Baraat, the groom's wedding procession, is a grand affair where the groom arrives at the bride's house on a decorated horse or car, accompanied by his family and friends. The bride's family welcomes the Baraat with dhol beats and flowers.
    The wedding ceremony in a Punjabi wedding is conducted according to the Sikh traditions. The Anand Karaj ceremony takes place in a Gurudwara, where the couple takes their vows in front of the Guru Granth Sahib. The ceremony is accompanied by hymns and prayers, and the couple circles around the Guru Granth Sahib four times, signifying the four stages of life.
    The post-wedding rituals in a Punjabi wedding are just as exciting as the wedding itself. The Vidaai ceremony is a bittersweet moment where the bride bids farewell to her family and leaves for her new home. The Doli ceremony follows the Vidaai, where the bride sits in a decorated palanquin and is carried by her brothers to her husband's house. The Griha Pravesh ceremony is the final post-wedding ritual, where the bride is welcomed into her new home by her in-laws.
    In conclusion, Punjabi weddings are a true reflection of the vibrant culture and rich traditions of Punjab. They are an embodiment of love, respect, and togetherness. Punjabi weddings are not just a ceremony; they are a celebration of life. If you are planning to attend a Punjabi wedding, get ready to experience the liveliness and festivity like no other!
